Vintage & Clearance Sewing Treasures 

Before you shop — a little history worth knowing.

The Stretch & Sew patterns you'll find here aren't just old patterns. They're pieces of American sewing history, created by Ann Person — the Oregon woman who taught the world to sew on knits, built 353 stores worldwide, and was inducted into the American Sewing Guild's Hall of Fame in 2004.

When I ran my sewing store in Champaign, Illinois 1990-2003, carrying her patterns was a point of pride. These specific patterns came to me years later as a generous gift from a fellow sewist in Florida who wanted them to find a good home. Every one is uncut and unused. Some date to 1967 — Stretch & Sew's very founding year.
